Publisher's Synopsis
Have you heard of the "Mediterranean diet", my friend?
Many people may be unfamiliar with this term, but this diet has been adopted in Mediterranean countries and regions for many years.
In 1958, Dr. Ancel Keys, put forward a new diet based on a formal study. This Mediterranean diet is a great way to improve your health and longevity.
In this cookbook, we will tell you:
- What is the Mediterranean diet?

- What should I pay attention to in a Mediterranean diet?
Numerous comparative studies have shown that the Mediterranean diet, with its most rational composition and most beneficial effects on human health, can reduce the risk of many diseases.
High consumption of olive oil is the most prominent feature of the "Mediterranean diet". A bottle of verdant extra virgin olive oil is almost always served on the table in Mediterranean countries. The health function of olive oil lies in its excellent antioxidant performance and high monounsaturated fatty acid content, which helps to reduce cholesterol level, reduce blood viscosity, help to prevent the formation of small blood clots, and can significantly reduce the incidence of cardiovascular disease.
